####Q: How do flavors get put on the schedule?
####A: Requests and suggestions from people like YOU!
If there's something you'd like to see, just post a request in this thread. You can request both a specific flavor profile and where it lands on the calendar.
So this week is dedicated to all the basic bitches out there?
As a defective person I’d love to see episodes of “Muted” where you’ve got a few mutes trying flavors and telling us what they can and can not taste. Then maybe an experienced mixer who isn’t mute letting us know reasonable substitute options for some of the more popular flavors based off what we can taste.
Also !!Add20FromMe!! So my olfactory challenged kinfolk can play along.
get FA Strawberry Green my friend! it's a delicious candied SB that I can taste pretty well. VSO SB Raw is a bit pricey, but it's the only natural-tasting SB I can personally advocate for + it is very good. JF Ultimate SB is decent, but it's a bit disappointing when compared to FA SB Green. INW Shisha SB is weak but I can taste some syrupy SB from it.
I had a list of a few strawberries I was looking to try on my computer before it died, I think strawberry green was one of them. Whenever I can get into that hard drive again I’ll either make sure it’s there or add the ones you’ve listed.
At some point in time I plan on spending too much money on a bunch of flavors I probably won’t be able to taste to see what works.
Given the muting issues I’ve temporarily put strawberries on hold.
where all my strawberry mutes at?! this is not an entry ;)
Unfortunately I was under impression when buying store bought juices with strawberries they just tasted bad or weren’t great recipes. The guy at the vape shop I went to apparently wasn’t familiar with mutes either.
When I got into DIY I figured I’d try a few recipes to find something I like since I absolutely love strawberries… two recipes and a few single flavor tests later I realized I am just a defective human being.
I mean, I may have known I was broken before, just now with strawberry vapes as well.
haha I feel your pain! I had a very similar experience, except Keep It 100's Strawberry Milk juice was one of my favorites + I could taste the SB pretty well. so imagine my surprise when I kept buying other popular SB juices + was wondering why/ how they were so disgusting. Naked's Lava Flow juice was probably one of the nastiest juices I've ever tried + I had no idea it was gross due to the SB component missing.... until I got into DIY + figured it out pretty quickly, after buying every popular SB concentrate in large sizes, ofc.
Strawberries are also one of my favorite fruits as well
> this is not an entry ;)
FYI - there's an easy way to do that and it doesn't require a reroll after you're picked (details in the original post)
!!DontPickMe!!
If only I could taste strawberry liquids....
Strawberry and cream, strawberry milkshakes, strawberry milk, all mean nothing to me. My favourite fruit? Strawberries.
Most of my attempts at strawberry recipes have failed to taste anything like strawberry. Even the strawberry trinity leaves a lot to be desired. Watching this post in the hopes of trying something new that'll work.
I'll just leave this right here..
When a man went to the doctor to get rid of the strawberry that was growing out of his head, the doctor told him, "Don't worry. I'll give you some cream for that".
Good old Strawberries & Cream, first thing I made when getting into DIY.
God Milk I bet
The only Strawberry I've been able to taste so far has been INW Shisha Strawberry
Strawberry and Cream as a single flavor seems...lazy?
But couldn’t you build on that instead of just using it as a single flavor?
I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you're asking.
(JF) SWEET STRAWBERRY CREAM -
Easily the best I have tried of anything that would fall in this category!
It's a nice!!
Out of these options I've only tried Cap strawberry and cream. I didn't really care for it and so far I'd rather make my own. Hopefully you find a hidden gem this week.
> I've only tried Cap strawberry and cream.
That was one of my first flavors back in 2017. It wasn't great IIRC. A lot of single flavors weren't what I expected. Strawberry cream, orange cream, orange creamsicle... They just weren't good on their own. Blue raspberry flavors were a huge letdown as well 😆.
I have Sweet SB Cream JF but I find it needs help with the SB. I added Succulent SB (OSDIY) but it wasn’t what wanted. I think I’m pretty much strawberry mute EXCEPT for Succulent SB (OSDIY) which is kind of candied in my opinion. I’ve not tried Flavorah SB & cream though…
Is the place to post our favorite diy Strawberries & Cream recipes?
Sure
What about
> but there are a handful that combine them and this is about those.
> Examples:
> FLV Strawberry Cream
> TFA Strawberries & Cream
> CAP Strawberries & Cream
> Delosi Strawberry Cream
> Health Cabin Strawberry Cream
I combine Strawberry, Ripe (TPA) and Sweet Strawberry (CAP) for my strawberry recipies. Ripe Strawberry cancels out some of the candy taste of Sweet Strawberry.
I think I'm strawberry mute. I was wondering if people that are mute just get sweetness from strawberry flavorings? Honestly it's been a long while since I've had a real strawberry. It's got to be several years since I've had a strawberry candy. What I get from strawberry is sweetness, maybe a non descript berry but mostly sweetness. I guess I'm broken...
I'm one of the rare weird ones that isn't big on strawberries in my vapes. I don't hate them, but it was never something I actually seek out. Although I did have one good one years ago. It was a strawberry & cream with coconut, which actually made the mix doable for me. I'll still watch to support the noted crew though!
I think when it comes to S&C, most of us prefer to make our own out of our own favorite strawberry and favorite cream flavors, or whichever ones we think work best together, but there are a handful that combine them and this is about those.
Examples:
- FLV Strawberry Cream
- TFA Strawberries & Cream
- CAP Strawberries & Cream
- Delosi Strawberry Cream
- Health Cabin Strawberry Cream
Those are the five I have anyway. I know there are at least five or six more out there.
Fair warning:. I like my vape juice very sweet and highly flavored. Adjust to taste.
